Cannibal Corpse - Force Fed Broken Glass (song)
“Force Fed Broken Glass” is quite possibly my favorite Cannibal Corpse song off their 1994 album “The Bleeding”. This happens to be the 9th track on the album which is the second to last song. It’s kind of weird that they put such a good song towards the end …

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - Trout Mask Replica (1970)
Little did I know that so long as 50 years ago, a guy known as Captain Beefheart was out there satirizing the music industry and composing ridiculously respectable tuneage that can only be described as eclectic.
